Resizing Containers in Proxmox

See original details here:
https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/resize-lxc-disk-on-proxmox.68901/

On your proxmox node, do this.


1. List the containers:
    pct list

2. Stop the particular container you want to resize:
    pct stop 999

3. Find out it's path on the node:
    lvdisplay | grep "LV Path\|LV Size"

4. For good measure one can run a file system check:
    e2fsck -fy /dev/pve/vm-999-disk-0

5. Resize the file system:
    resize2fs /dev/pve/vm-999-disk-0 10G

6. Resize the local volume
    lvreduce -L 10G /dev/pve/vm-999-disk-0

7. Edit the container's conf, look for the rootfs line and change accordingly:
    nano /etc/pve/lxc/999.conf

    rootfs: local-lvm:vm-999-disk-0,size=32G >> rootfs: local-lvm:vm-999-disk-0,size=10G

8. Start it:
    pct start 999

9. Enter it and check the new size:
    pct enter 999
    df -h
